French Omelette

[Music] a classic french omelette also better than another omelet it's just a different type of technique to do it you beat the eggs and you move it as fast as you can with one hand and the other end with the fork to get to create the smallest possible curd that you can and you don't even let it brown you mix it as fast as you can like cranberry eggs barely let it take then bring all the thing on one side and avert it it should be very soft tender moist in the center so it's a different way of doing it and we start all the time a little piece of butter i'm going to put three eggs bring the eggs on something flat preferably preferably uh buy organic eggs okay in that case here i'll do fine herb omelette i will chive the classic waste chive parsley chervo and tarragon pepper salt that's it now you want to mix your eggs you won't just turn with your fork this way because the white get out like a wet map around you really have to break it so you don't have long thread of [Music] white in your omelette that's it okay so this is a nonstick omelette i mean nothing pan it's a six eight inch three egg omelette move it there and now using the bottom of this and your hand here you have to bring that together bring it around to create a small small skill again bring it around and you may like it more cooked less cooked i don't like it too quick and at the end of it the embossing part of it now look at that here i bring everything on this side rather than with just one liner and rolling rolling a carpet i bring everything on one side then i bring that lip here you want to have a nice oval curd like this and this there and to bring the other lip back on tip you buy it here to lift it up fold it on top this is the time where you would want to stuff it inside but we don't brown it now take your plate you change hand you want to bang that to bring it right to the edge and empty your arm right and it should be soft pale beautiful pale color no pleat on top peel and the center should be very moist and tender i'll show it to you here i got that omelette in half you will see that very creamy center classic french omelet with herbs [Music] [Music] [Music] you
